The U.S. House of Representatives passed the Major Richard Star Act to eliminate the 'wounded veteran tax,' which currently reduces retirement pay for nearly 60,000 combat-injured veterans receiving VA disability compensation. This bipartisan legislation allows these veterans to receive full retirement and disability benefits without offset. The bill honors Army Major Richard Star, who faced this offset after medically retiring due to cancer linked to toxic exposure during service. The Wounded Warrior Project, leading the advocacy coalition, urges the Senate to quickly pass the bill to provide long-overdue financial relief to affected veterans.
